What comes after Unity8+Mir for example?

I'd just like to know what the Foundation's vision is for where this ends up and how we might get there.

My Nexus 5 is working well, but the components (battery in particular) aren't getting any newer, wondering if there isn't a somewhat newer device that would be a smart investment.

For a long time now Halium has been the suggested route for new ports and, architecturally, it seems like an excellent initiative. In spite of this the UBports supported phones have continued with the legacy stack.

What is the state of Halium based UBports? Are there working phones?

What is the state of other Halium based projects? And is the project moving forwards?

Are we ever going to see a move to Halium for future OTAs?

]]>http://forums.ubports.com/post/22119http://forums.ubports.com/post/22119Fri, 23 Aug 2019 05:42:10 GMTOne function often desired by the general public for a smart phone is video chat. It seems that there currently is no application on UT that can actually do this (the closest I have seen was the AppRTC demo, but even this was not able to truly correctly work, and it apparently relied on deprecated packages in order to do what little it could). Is this lack of video chat capability due simply to the lack of app development towards this, or is there something at the OS level that needs to be addressed in order allow app developers to create a workable solution for UT?

I have not tested Hublin but agaIn I do not believe video is currently working for it

Video chat can be implemented otherwise, in a native app, but anything relying on a WebView will have problems until QtWebEngine can be fixed and updated in UT.
